HERE IS A FINAL UPDATE FOR 8:30 pm.,Mon.,Feb. 2nd, 2009
YOU GOT THEM ALL DONE ! YOU GUYS DID IT , ON A TOUGH LIST.
LYNN AND oTJ DEPLOY BRAINTRUST THINKTANK TACTICS AND TURN IN AN
IMPRESSIVE RESPONSE.
Its also nice to welcome another Vistory Warrior - oTJ - aka Tomcat in YouTube - into the game as 'oTJ' !
JENNEY, AFTER A FRUSTRATING TURN ON Q318 ....Peace.... , TOOK A SHOT AT THIS REAL TOUGHY, AND MISSED, NO DOUBT DUE TO THE UNUSUAL NATURE OF THE PROPER NOUN CLUE OF ....Peace MID-VERSE ? HER SHOT ON THIS RARE CASE OF A PROPER NOUN THAT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE IT SHOULD BE ONE, & MID-SENTENCE ..MISSED , BUT SHE THEN NAILED THE BIG-GAME ON A REAL-TOUGHY, Q317 'Betty Called Me In' from the clue '....this crying' ,a very hard question ! its of course one of the 'rarities' found in Songbook !
Ron took aim at his common 2 or 3, leaving plenty of others, as a courtesy to fellow players, while I have no doubt he held a few answers in reserve. His last shot was at a moving target with a proper noun capped.Q318 ....Peace.... , which was a moving target because it was the Peace River, from his admittedly favorite song, Canary Yellow Canoe. He enthusiastically cites the reasons for it being his favorite song as: " well, it has that classic Lightfoot sound, slow acoustic guitar sound to it, soaring vocals, a good one-guitar song for around the campfire, slow and lazy sounding...LIKE A RIVER! THAT'S WHY ! - fascinating geographic feature names in the rivers, but what I don't get is: Why do many of these rivers flow North ?
RON explains further: -"Like the McKenzie, flowing UP to its mouth at Beaufort Bay, at the northerly terminus of Northwest Territories. I thought all rivers flowed DOWN, you know, down on the map... is South ! I think 'down' river is South only below the equator, like Australia. I'm quite sure all the rivers flow 'UP' to the equator, because all geographic phenomenon are backwards below the equator. Like compasses point to Ayers Rock there I think, cause they have no magnetic north down there you know. And they have to turn maps upside down; down there.Thats all I have to say. So shut up and get on with the game." OK RON !....you rascal you ! Play on we will, and thank YOU for turning in two very difficult questions. lol -(OK fun is fun, but I made up this response from Ron!)
I HOPE YOU ALL ENJOYED THIS DIFFICULT LIST OF 10 WE'RE DONE WITH !
